Transfer Credit

Graduate credit earned at another university may be transferred to Ohio State. The Graduate School places no limit on the graduate credit hours that may be transferred. However, residence and minimum degree requirements determine the number of graduate credit hours that may be counted toward a graduate degree.

The following conditions must be satisfied in order to transfer graduate credit:

1. that the graduate credit was earned as a graduate student at an accredited university
2. that the student earned at least a grade of “B” or satisfactory in each course for which credit is to be transferred
3. that the graduate studies committee approves the transfer
